Light damage to all enemies (++++) / Gives random ally "runaway" (???)
Initial: Light's Characters Attack +20% / burst gauge increase amount +10%
4LB: Light's Characters Attack +30% / burst gauge increase amount +20%

I know you have a bias against Lolis and all that but Nandi is one of the top stat sticks for Light mains that arent filled with Hecatonchereis, Arch angels or God Kaisers

First of, having 3 of those MLBed still leaves you missing with 2 more for a full mono eido grid for fluffies. And additionally Arch Angel's stats are so shit for a gacha mlb you might be better off using event mlbs.

Kitty and his bias opinion against lolis again, nothing new to see here...

Event-wise, yea, your light stat sticks are Sphinx (2118 atk), St. Nicholas (1950 atk), Yule Goat (1890 atk), Nandi (1986 atk), and for a period of time Abou (1770 atk). Then Abou gets kicked out for Kinshi (1926 atk) if you don't care for Abou's dark atk debuff.
Alternatively, since Sphinx does get a reprint later, one can run two separate max copies of Sphinx if you care only about atk.
Although you'll probably run the light kaiser from orb exchange somewhere in there, so that kicks out Abou or Yule Goat on an atk basis, or St. Nicholas on the basis of 'St. Nick's summon effect freaking sucks'.

yes i'm biased most of the time, but kek it's rlly nothing to do with what she looks like, tho. she has a really bad summon which isn't worth a sub slot for me, regardless of her stats (which I didn't actually remember what they were because i'm brain dead)

I have LB2 Hecat +99 who takes Nandi's place in my sub slot, as they have the same-ish stats Hecat being 2LB+99 compared to Nandi at MLB.
Sphinx, Saint Nick (god awful summon), Yule Goat <3 and God Kaiser. that makes 5, tho. but Tiamat+99/Jorm+99 take the place instead of another light eido just because of their summon/stats rather than support for Managarmr.

sorry for not recalling her stats, tho, that's the only good thing about her I suppose, so good for anyone who doesn't have any light gacha eidos and want to give Managarmr that extra bonus.

and@ guest i'm not a dude, thanks : (

Nandi is a pretty big improvement over St. Nicholas. 570 hp and 1950 attack for St. Nicholas versus 636 hp and 1986 attack for Nandi. For me she'll be replacing Barong since I started late and Barong isn't +99.

Nandi does not give a big attack boost at only 30%, but gives some 20% extra burst filling rate, so I thought she could be decent as a main Eidolon in a Light burst build I considered - just needs to have lots of friends with Yule Goat, which I have: with Zeal boosted by Nandi, how fast could I Full Burst things?

Giving Berserk as her summon effect, though, beats the purpose of building up burst meter, as one kami wouldn't burst while in Berserk... but then again maybe that hypothetical build would Full Burst so often I will never need more than 10 turns to finish enemies off, and I could avoid using her Summon Attack altogether. Thoughts?
